Shane Coughlan is the founder and manager of the Openchain Project, which “builds trust in open source by making open source license compliance simpler and more consistent.” As any software asset management person can tell you, they get cross-eyed when it comes to open source license compliance. My opinion has always been that this was due to lack of information outside of the immediate sphere of open source developers. The Openchain Project aims to remedy that, and in this podcast we talked about the challenges of doing that. It’s a great listen!

OpenEBS and CloudByte Talk About Containerized Storage
I had the privilege of speaking to Uma Mukkara, COO and co-founder of Cloudbyte, and Kiran Mova, Cloudbyte’s VP of Engineering and self-professed open source hacker. Cloudbyte was in the news yesterday as they announced that Evan Powell, former CEO of Nexenta, has taken the reins as Cloudbyte CEO. They also announced the release of OpenEBS 0.3, which shows a steady march towards tighter integration with container orchestration frameworks, Kubernetes being the first on their radar.

OSEN Podcast, CLS Edition – Jono Bacon
We had a great talk with Jono Bacon, community leader extraordinaire. Jono spent many years as the Ubuntu community leader, founded the Community Leadership Summit (CLS – now taking place in Austin, TX, as we speak), wrote the book The Art of Community, and has now started his own consulting practice, Jono Bacon Consulting.
We talked about all things community-related, including the intersection between community development, devops, and product management. It was a great discussion, and I hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed talking.

First Podcast: Tim Mackey, Black Duck
I spoke with Tim Mackey, Technology Evangelist from Black Duck. Tim spent a few years at Citrix working on Xen Server and Cloudstack, where he, like me and many others, started thinking about how to get code from project to product. Tim and I talked about open source risk management, the current state of IT and open source, Xen vs. KVM flashbacks, and more.
